I can't help but think back to what a great time we had at Men's Night 222. It was a blessing to see so many men from Ogletown and other churches--of all ages and backgrounds--come out for a great night of worship and fellowship. It was a special blessing to me to have so many guys help out to make it such a great night. Among many things, this night proved to me that the men of Ogletown love their Lord and Savior and the heart of worship is beating strongly among us!
It was fun to share my story about working out and getting is shape and tying that to working on spiritual health. Just like exercising becomes effective only when we adopt it as a lifestyle, spiritual health works the exact same way---if we view personal devotions, church, Bible study and service as a "to do" list, it becomes a chore rather than an essential part of who we are.
Strive for Five (personal devotions, church, small group, one-on-one accountability, service to others), just like a good workout routine, is more effective as a lifestyle choice---and a very healthy one at that!!
